| Abstract | We discuss cryogenic scintillation of Al2O3. Room-temperature measurements with alpha particles are first carried out to study effect of Ti concentration on response. Measurements under X-rays between room temperature and 10 K confirm a doubling of light output. The integration of a scintillation-phonon detector into an ionization-phonon dark matter search is underway, and the quenching factor for neutrons has been verified. |
